After sending away Yao Wanli, who was chattering and deliberately revealing something.
Xie Duanyang sat on the armchair, eyes closed and silent.
After a long while, I opened my eyes, raised my head, drank the tea in the cup, and finally made up my mind.
Although Mulan and the news of the centuries-old war between the Tu and Tu tribes were indeed unexpected, he did not intend to change his mind.
When it comes to spiritual practice, take one step slowly and one step at a time.
He must maintain a speed that is at least not much slower than Han Li's in order to leave the human world with little spiritual energy through the reverse spirit passage.
Otherwise, even if you are sitting on a rare treasure, there is no guarantee that you will not die of old age.
After all, he is now over fifty, but he has not even started his third turn.
After entering the Jin Dynasty, there are still a series of things to prepare for, and it will take several years.
It is absolutely impossible to hide here for more than ten years and waste your time in order to avoid the war.
What's more...
This trip may not be very dangerous.
In addition to the points mentioned by Yao Wanli, for example, the Mulan people are not willing to go too far and cut off the material supply channels, resulting in being exposed to enemies from both sides.
The key lies in Xie Duanyang's own plan.
In order to avoid disturbing the situation and attracting the masters of Mulan and Tutu tribes, he originally planned to enter the grassland and unintentionally take advantage of the territory of those big tribes.
Instead, try to choose remote borders as much as possible, and even if you deal with them, only choose small and medium-sized tribes.
In this way, although the journey is a bit long, it can ensure that you avoid encountering high-level magicians to the greatest extent.
If this is the case, it would be a good thing for the two Mulan clans to go to war.
Every century-old war directly determines the ownership of the prairie, and the fortunes of the two tribes rise and fall.
The vast majority of those high-level monks will inevitably be transferred by the temples of the two races to participate in the war.
And the place they were originally guarding will become empty and defenseless.
For oneself to disguise himself and sneak in, there will be a hundred benefits and no harm.
After thinking about this, Xie Duanyang was determined.
First, he sent Zhang Chuan notes to Yao and Chen respectively, and then closed the door again to deal with the harvest of this trip.
The three heavy objects, the gun head, the python bone, and the python tendon, were sorted out first and put aside, and then the detailed inventory was started.
The three pirate cultivators have been operating in Lanhai Market for many years, and they have gained a lot from their praise.
Because of the characteristics of Lanhai Market, the magical weapons and other items they robbed have basically been sold.
Switching to hard currency such as spiritual stones, spiritual talismans, and elixirs saved me a lot of effort.
It's a pity that they are not involved in production, so they don't keep raw materials like spiritual minerals on their bodies.
Spear heads, python bones, and python tendons are only the key materials. If Xie Duanyang wants to re-refining, he must add several auxiliary spiritual materials.
Fortunately, if three people put it together, it is not a small amount. Plus Xie Duanyang's original collection, it is definitely more than enough.
However, he didn't attack it immediately and opened the furnace directly. Instead, he took out the golden light armor talisman.
Divine thoughts are poured into the Taixu Mirror, and the mirror radiance is projected to cover the spiritual talisman. Its power is slowly extracted, and it is projected and shaped in the mirror.
Because of the previous experience with the Jade Phosphorous Five Poison Needles, and the mana and spirituality contained in this talisman has long been depleted.
The process was extremely smooth.
In just two days, the talisman turned into ashes in Xie Duanyang's hands and was completely scrapped.
A set of specific and subtle golden light appeared in the mirror.
However, due to time constraints, the sacrificial refining technique of this armor has not yet been completely deduced and explored.
However, Xie Duanyang has no intention of actually reproducing it.
Not to mention that his cultivation level is not enough to produce magic weapons, and it is impossible for him to gather the materials for them.
As he continued to deduce, Xie Duanyang once again ordered the Taixu Mirror to try to blend it into the "Bai-Colored Shadowless Armor" based on his own body.
The most rare thing about this magical weapon is its ability to disguise and change. When combined with the secret technique of the Thousand Illusions Sect, it becomes even more difficult to distinguish the true from the false.
After completing the second level of cultivation and the golden-backed mantis successfully forming elixirs, Xie Duanyang's eyesight also improved a lot.
Its originally good protective power is somewhat lacking.
He thought very simply. Instead of focusing on controlling several top-level magic weapons, it would be better to refine one to the extreme.
If it weren't for the unique way of offering sacrifices to the Chi Yuan Bell, Xie Duanyang would have already refined it into the same place as the robes and spirit armor on his body.
According to his calculations, if this move is successful.
The level and protective power of the Baise Shadowless Armor will be infinitely close to that of a formal magic weapon.
Even if you face the pill-forming monks directly, it is enough to hold on for a few rounds, enough for you to use other life-saving means.
Although they are all magic robes and spiritual armor, the magic weapon sacrificial methods derived from the talismans are always somewhat different from the original ones.
In addition, the two sacrificial methods are completely different. In the first few days, the operation of the Taixu Mirror can only be described as stumbling.
It is extremely difficult to combine them in one place. Fortunately, after seven days of running in, I finally solved the most difficult beginning and gradually got better.
With the Taixu Mirror continuing to deduce, Xie Duanyang had time to release the Red Luo Heavenly Furnace and start a fire skillfully.
Start processing and refining its python bones, dragon tendons, ice silk, ivy and other auxiliary materials.
Practice makes him perfect, and he can do it in one go.
My spirit is not exhausted, but full of excitement and eagerness to try.
"It's a pity..."
Although most of the magic power in his body was still left, Xie Duanyang still put the elixir into his mouth first.
Just then, he used his fingers as a dagger to make a cut in the palm of his right hand, forcing blood to pour on it.
Then he clamped the gun head with both palms and silently moved the iron-making hand.
Although after his second turn, his mana is now as pure and condensed as ordinary pill formation.
But since the elixir has never been formed, there is a huge difference after all.
If you can't activate the elixir fire, you won't be able to completely refine this magic weapon fragment, so you can only fall back and choose a compromise.
Having said this, Xie Duanyang couldn't help but sigh silently.
Patriarch Lieyan and Master Wu Tao had the foresight to cast a spell to take out the green lotus cultivated from the earth and fire essence at the foot of Mingyi Mountain long before the Six Demonic Sects attacked the mountain gate.
Give the lotus petal fire seeds to the elders in the sect and the pill-forming seeds.
The level of this fire is the same as the pill fire of a pill-forming monk, but its mysterious power is even better.
Xie Duanyang once tried to refine the false elixir when he first transferred to cultivation.
But his instinct told him at that time that the probability of success would never exceed 50%.
Once it fails, the fire will disappear and it will suffer backlash. The risk is too great.
"But when the magic power increases, maybe we can give it another try..."
Xie Duanyang thought silently and put down the gun tip that was stained with a dark red halo.
Based on the python bones and tendons, the remaining small section is continued.
Another seven days passed, feeling the fire gradually extinguishing, Xie Duanyang raised his hand and waved lightly.
Only a clear roar was heard, and an eight-foot-long green gun shaft flew out from the furnace mouth.
The dark red gun head slowly followed.
Wandering around in the air for several times, the two objects fell into Xie Duanyang's palm before the spiritual energy was exhausted.
Holding the two objects with both hands, a "kacha" sound was heard, and the gun head was embedded in the gun barrel.
The brilliance circulated for a few moments before it faded away.
As the spear was completed, the spear head, which had always given the impression of being independent and untamable, now felt like it was connected by blood.
Due to his cultivation, it was difficult for Xie Duanyang to completely refine the spear head.
However, after refining the two objects separately, through the connection between the gun head and the small length of the gun barrel, and through the blood refining technique, I finally found another way to control this object.
Put away the red sky furnace and the fire crow that fueled the fire.
Xie Duanyang shook his wrist subtly, creating a gorgeous gun flower in the air.
A man follows a gun like a wandering dragon.
One move at a time, simple and simple.
But there is a tragic atmosphere of the battlefield coming out.
At this moment, Xie Duanyang does not look like a Taoist who was born in the world, but a peerless general who charges into battle and kills unparalleled people.
It was the "Hundred Battles and Marksmanship" that he had acquired at that ancient military training place.
Finally, the guns and flowers returned to one place, and Xie Duanyang stabbed down simply.
The spear took the opportunity and came out, and the strong energy spurted out like a green snake spitting a letter.
The golden light on the tip of the gun seems to be unstoppable and everything in front of it will be penetrated.
Seeing that the spear was about to hit the formation barrier he had set up earlier, he suddenly pushed his mana to the extreme and took the spear back into his palm.
The gun body twisted violently, and the green green energy and the magic power used by Xie Duanyang to restrain it were consumed crazily.
After trying out the approximate power of this magical weapon, Xie Duanyang nodded with satisfaction.
In terms of the "Hundred Battles Spear Technique", he is at most proficient in the moves and is barely above the level of entry level.
As he continues to master it, although it is impossible to match his full strength of White Tiger Seven Kills, there is still great potential to be tapped.
Quickly calculating the time in his mind, Xie Duanyang continued to release the spear.
Using the magic power of the mind to control the gun, it moves up and down in the air, shuttling and changing. This time it is no longer a practice of hundreds of battles of marksmanship, but a flying sword technique.
On that day, Xie Duanyang rescued Li Fuzhi, a female cultivator from Huadaowu, in Yanling Castle and obtained two sets of sword techniques from her.
Although he soon obtained the inheritance of "White Tiger's Seven Kills", these two sword techniques are still very useful.
Now, Xie Duanyang is using the gun as a sword to perform the "Green Water Washing Knife Technique" practiced by Li Fuzhi back then.
White Tiger's Seven Kills and Hundred Battles Spear Art are both pure Gengjin lineage.
However, the spear head and barrel of this magical weapon correspond to the two elements of gold and water respectively. In fact, they are not as suitable as the "Green Water Knife Washing Technique".
It's just that Xie Duanyang's qualifications in the water element are not even enough to show his spiritual roots that can be detected by ordinary methods in the world of cultivation.
In addition, he has not learned the true technique of this sword technique, so using the spear body to perform the flying sword technique is somewhat difficult and not smooth enough.
Therefore, its power is obviously much weaker than the Hundred Battles Spear Art just now.
Xie Duanyang did not stop because of this, he just repeatedly practiced the sword skills he knew and tried his best to integrate them into the Hundred Battles Spear Skills.
Five days passed like this, and Xie Duanyang suddenly put away his spear, opened the formation restrictions, and walked out.
The annual auction at Lan Hai Market will start tonight and last for six days.
Previously, just by wandering around Wanghai Tower, I could harvest fragments of magic weapons that could be used.
He is naturally looking forward to this large-scale auction organized by the four major forces.
The secret shops of the four forces also hold auctions, but they are staggered with the big auction, and they are not held jointly by the four.
"Fellow Taoist has actually left seclusion. I am worried that fellow Taoist is too focused on practice and will miss the conference."
After so many days, monk surnamed Chen has completely recovered from the injuries he suffered while participating in the Wanghai Tower worship assessment.
Yao Wanli no longer showed a trace of uneasiness when he first came here.
He handed the catalog of items that appeared at the auction to Xie Duanyang, and at the same time, he quietly winked and transmitted a message.
"I suddenly had an inspiration in the past few days, and I seemed to have caught the signs of a breakthrough to the later stage. I didn't expect that it would take so long, and I almost missed the main thing..."
After flipping through the catalog a few times, Xie Duanyang seemed to have thought of something and apologized to the two of them.
"After the delay of these days, please allow me to clean up my belongings and exchange them for spiritual stones. The two fellow Taoists will wait at the entrance of the auction."
After saying that, he released a flying escape weapon and planned to say goodbye.
Although this kind of large auction is a joint effort of four major forces, the venue takes turns.
This time, it happened to be the turn of Tumu Pavilion, one of the four major forces, to host it.
"In that case, fellow Taoist, just go and get busy."
Waving his hand magnanimously, the monk surnamed Chen couldn't hide the smile on his face and explained to the two of them.
"As one of the organizers, Wanghai Tower naturally has some conveniences for those of us who serve as worshipers.
Even before the auction started, we had already acquired the items we needed at prices that were slightly lower than previous years by 10% or 20%.
Of course, things cannot be overdone, and information about truly cherished treasures will not be released in advance..."
Ignoring what he was chattering about, Xie Duanyang leisurely escaped for dozens of miles in the air and gradually slowed down.
First, his spiritual consciousness was activated, and after inspecting all the plants and trees nearby, he pressed down the light in front of his shop.
Not surprisingly, he met Yao Wanli again here.
It’s just that I don’t know what kind of escape technique the opponent has practiced, or he still has an excellent flying escape weapon.
Actually, he arrived first and arrived one step ahead of Xie Duanyang.
"Brother Yao, are there any clues about that matter?
If you want to follow the Bee Stinger into the Mulan Grassland, how much will it cost?"
Following Yao Wanli into the store, Xie Duanyang made no secret of it, patted the bulging storage bag, and spoke in a low voice.
"No matter how much it costs..."
He was not just asking Yao Wanli. Xie Duanyang looked at the middle-aged scribe at the counter who was writing something down with a pen.
This place is obviously similar to the bookstore, and both are a stronghold of the Bee Sting Organization.
Xie Duanyang just opened his mouth to test it out.
"It's not about money."
Even though he was on his own territory, Yao Wanli still felt guilty, raised his hand and cast a simple soundproofing spell, and also lowered his voice to explain.
"When new people join, they always have to go through a test at the beginning and complete a few simple tasks first."
He spoke calmly, as if all this was really easy.
"The Taoist friend above is an unfamiliar face. He happened to be attending the auction and took some pictures for the organization that were not convenient for his official appearance."
Saying that, Yao Wanli stuffed in the pamphlet again.
Xie Duanyangxin turned over his hands, and found that the list was obviously much smaller than the one at the beginning.
There are only eight or nine simple things, but the rest of the information is obviously much richer.
